This was posted on Linked in, a few weeks ago and I decided to go:

Academicians citizens of Raanana or Hasharon area

You are invited to a first and unique Employment Fair offering:
• Direct meetings with potential employers
• A wide variety of jobs for senior or highly skilled candidates
• Options for retraining or career change
• Lectures and occupational information

The fair will take place on Wednesday, May 5th, 16:00 - 20:00 in the Open University Campus in Raanana, Derech Hauniversita 1, Raanana.

I went to the employment fair, of course, I didn't get there at 16:00, I figured i'd go after work, but since I didn't have anyone to mind the kids and wasn't sure how to drive there...I waited for Ed and got there at 19:00...near the end and with the kids. No matter I got the impression that is was more of an Isra-Bluf, like most things in this country and today on my way to work, I was justified by someone else that went there.

I'm sure the one in University of Tel-Aviv will be better and bigger...but not likely that I'll go to it.

So what was there...a lot of tables with potential employers...my guess is companies that are seeking employees who have recently finished university or are about to finish university.

There was one lecture about the pros and cons of being self employed.

and when it comes to optional for retraining and career change. I suppose that was the biggest bluf of all, though not surprising since it was held in the Open University, why would they let others enjoy the benefits...so they had one desk with booklets about their Bachelors, Masters and what I was more interested, diploma studies...so at least that was something. Of course now they have my phone number.

however at least now I know where they are, how to get there and I can consider a few possibilities...unfortunately they don't have Graphic design, but they do have interior design and also Programming, QA, Marketing, Accounting, Real estate,  ...but to be honest, I am feeling rather strongly about going in a direction that does not involve computer work, possibly even less office work...I feel that my capabilities are jeopardized by a computer. I can be a very good employee, but when I have a computer it's an easy distraction...
